Phil’s Kids
Trustees’ Annual Report
For The Year End 31 October 2021
Objectives and Activities
The objects of the Charitable Incorporated Organisation are:
-
To advance the health of individuals and families of people at risk of Huntington’s Disease (HD) and those already suffering by, in particularly but not exclusively, promoting safe, medically sanctioned, and proven methods of reproduction for people at risk or suffering from HD to have HD-free children.
-
Providing the opportunity for those at risk or suffering from HD to access medically sanctioned and proven methods for the reproduction of HD-free children. Helping to relieve the suffering, emotional and psychological, of people suffering or at risk of HD surrounding their reproductive choices. At this time, the geographical area is limited to the United Kingdom.
Achievements and Performance
The fundraising efforts and the unpaid hours of the board, volunteers and supporters have, fortunately, allowed us to confer one grant this year and to keep our charity viable. We cannot stress enough how the pandemic placed a temporary but global halt to our planned performance, achievements, and goals.
Our webpage hosts changed their operating programme and as such we had to place the website as under construction as we attempted to revamp and re-establish the site. A further change and a need to learn a whole new programming approach led to further delays and lowered available funds meant that we were unable to outsource this task during the financial year. Our other online profiles, Facebook, and Instagram pages have allowed us to stay connected with our supporters in addition to printed articles and an inclusion in a television documentary have also helped us to increase our media profile. We recognise that we are by no means alone in weathering the wider effects of the pandemic and acknowledge that a return to business as usual will be a long and taxing journey. One we are committed to making.

Reserves
